So often women don’t begin their Art because they think it’s “frivolous”, or not as important as other things in life.

Yet I talk with women every day who are withering inside because they’ve been neglecting their creative calling for so long.

These are the results that I see every single day from my Mentoring students. And they can be yours too.

So no more excuses … Here are 52 reasons why you can give yourself permission to start your art today! (And if you don’t know how to get started, scroll down to the bottom of this post)…
